Robert S. Baker: <<...we didn't have that many American guest stars on the series. We got David Hedison because he was a friend of Roger's. He was over here and Roger offered him the part so he said sure, why not. Otherwise if we'd had to negotiate with him through his agent, we couldn't have afforded him. They usually came in on the old chums basis.>> (Simper, p.22)

Roger Moore: <<Hedison very nicely came and did an episode on his way back from Egypt. We couldn't pay him anything like his Hollywood fee>> (Simper, p.33)
